Copart and IAA lots · UKDeal Check. My verdict on one lot.
Send me one Copart or IAA lot before you bid. Inside 24 hours on working days you get my verdict in writing: what it costs with the fees in, what the MOT history says, what similar cars sell for, and the most I'd bid.
Pay with Stripe: card, Apple Pay or Google Pay. You paste the link to the lot at checkout.
What you get for £19
The verdict
The answer comes first. It is one of these two:
- Bid up to a set figure
- Walk away
- The real cost. The bid with the auction's fees and VAT on top, and getting the car home.
- The MOT history. The mileage at every test, the fails, and the advisories that keep coming back.
- What it sells for. Prices of similar cars for sale: the same year and engine, similar miles.
- A max bid. The most I'd pay, worked back from the sale price, the repairs and the fees.
- What I can't see. I say what the photos and the listing don't show.
The price

How it works
- Pay £19. With Stripe. Paste the link to the Copart or IAA lot at checkout.

- You get my verdict by email. Inside 24 hours on working days: bid up to a set figure, or walk away, with the working.
What it is, and what it isn't
A Deal Check is my read of the listing, the photos and the records. I have not seen the car, and it is not an inspection.
Auction cars can hide things no photo shows. I say what I can't check, so you know what you are taking on.
It is an opinion to help you decide. It is not a promise that the car will make money. Your money, your call.
If I can't give you a verdict, for example the lot ends before I get to it or the listing has too little to go on, you get your £19 back.
Questions people ask
Which auctions do you cover?
Copart UK and IAA UK. One lot for each Deal Check.
How fast is it?
Inside 24 hours on working days, which are Monday to Friday. Pay on a Saturday or Sunday and the 24 hours start on Monday morning. If your lot ends sooner than that, check the end time before you pay.
What do you need from me?
The link to the lot. You paste it in at checkout, and the verdict goes to the email address you pay with.
Do you look at the car itself?
No. It is my read of the listing, the photos and the records. For a car I can get to around Hemel Hempstead, the 120 point check is the hands-on one.
Is the max bid a guarantee?
No. It is the most I would pay on what I can see. An auction car can need more than its photos show, and no verdict is a promise of profit.
How does the £19 come off Premium?
Join Car Flip Academy Premium after your Deal Check and tell me the email address you paid with. The £19 comes off your first month.
I'm already a member. Do I pay?
Not for the ones in your plan. Premium includes one Deal Check a month and VIP includes four. Send those to me inside Skool. On Standard, post your car in Tuesday's Deal Check thread.
Got a lot in mind?
